Hi folks,
This is a special announcement just to tell you to prepare yourselves for Sunday week – the 14th of June – for an amazing piece of experimental radio. At 10:30pm that night I’ll be broadcasting FBi’s part of a half-hour triple broadcast by UTS Masters student Roger Mills. You’ll need two radios and a device for streaming audio (computer, iPhone, etc) to listen to 2SER 107.3FM, FBi 94.5FM and the netstream simultaneously! This has never been done before – makin’ history!

Don’t have more that one radio or a computer ?

Bring a radio down to Don’t Look Gallery, 419 New Canterbury Rd, Dulwich Hill, for a multi radiophonic experience as people tune their radios into a truly immersive sound environment. The evening starts at 6pm and features DJs and a performance by Forenzics.

Full info at Roger’s Idea of South page, and Roger will be in this Sunday to explain the piece in more detail.

Roger Mills is composer and sound artist who has just returned to his native Australia after living in the UK for twenty years. In that time he wrote and produced albums with Statik Sound System (Cup of Tea Records) and remixed tracks for British electro rockers Kosheen. Other credits include his collaboration with Grantby on Mo Wax’s Headz 2 and Sydney’s DJ Soup on Creative Vibes’ Evolutionary Vibes III, featured as album of the week on Triple J.

His most recent work includes album projects for Turkish singer Mircan Kaya and British Jazz quintet Limbo featuring Jim Bar (Potishead).

Labels and artists!

Utility Fog teeters on the cusp between acoustic and electronic, organic and digital. Constantly changing and rearranging, this aural cloud of nanotech consumes genres and spits them out in new forms. Whether cataloguing the jungle resurgence, tracking the ups and downs of noise and drone, or unearthing the remnants of glitch and folktronica, all is contextualised within artist & genre histories for a fulfilling sonic journey.
Since all these genre names are already pretty ridiculous, we thought we'd coin a new one. So "postfolkrocktronica" it is. Wear it.
